READ

Romans 12:2
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

DEVO

Conforming is so easy to do. It requires little effort or thought. Just do what everyone around you does. And, if there is any question, just follow the advice given by advertisers and you can’t go wrong. In following the well traveled road, there is safely and comfort, a sense of belonging. Of being a part of the herd.

Instead we are called to be transformed. Extreme makeovers are popular today, whether it be a house, a business, or a wardrobe. But Paul’s call for transformation is a call to experience an extreme makeover in who you are, your desires, priorities and commitments. Dare to break free of the herd and instead follow the Good Shepherd to a more abundant life.

PRAY

Lord, you desire that we are changed completely in our thoughts and deeds and not to be conformed to the way of the world. Wake us up to your transforming power so that we may fully embrace our new life in Christ.

Amen.
